One-year Contract via Aquent. A friend from when I worked at Microsoft previously reached out to me for a position as a remote editor for the Microsoft Trends Shift. The job is one of the photo editors who selects the images that run across the bottom of the home page for Bing.com. I worked regular shifts which included logging in remotely to the Microsoft network and I would get photo requests from the Trends Editor. I would go through our resources to find photos that fulfilled the requests, occasionally having to get creative. I would work with the editor to get the right look and feel for the images, generate the captions and headlines and credits.
So what is WordCamp? WordCamp is kind of like a local mini convention. But it’s put on by local WordPress users to help other users. Since I have come so far in one year with WordPress, I decided to volunteer to present. I have been a newspaper designer for more than 16 years, so I thought I would take a designer topic and discuss that. So my session is about fonts.
I designed this site while working for SiteInsight. It was a WordPress site, so I customized the theme that the client choose. They already had a logo. I did a majority of the setup and organization, as well as researching photos for them and editing the photos. I used JavaScript and PHP to setup the interactivity.

I worked on the Design Desk at The Columbus Dispatch on a one-year contract during their redesign. I designed features pages, inside news, the TV tab, the Business section and the Metro section. After the contract ended, I returned about 6 months later for another 6-month stint.
This site was built for a woman who was starting her own business. She wanted to build her online business brand to get public speaking jobs in her industry. She is a specialist in snow removal, as she used to work for ODOT. The WordPress site features a calendar, social media integration, testimonials and customized graphics, login and dashboard. I used JavaScript to setup the form, as well. I no longer have anything to do with the site because she hired an assistant to manage it, so the design is now their own.
